Technavio’s market research analysts have estimated the global stock market software industry to grow moderately at a CAGR of above 8% by 2020. This market research study identifies the rising number of FTAs (free trade agreement) between emerging nations to be one of the primary drivers for this market. By simplifying procedures, these agreements improve transit times and the efficiency of business operations. Moreover, these agreements also help to remove complicated regulatory barriers, reduce trade tariffs, and assist in improving the investment environment of both parties in the agreement. These features have subsequently increased the demand for FTAs and will foster the growth prospects for this market during the forecast period.

The shift from traditional methods to open accounts is considered to be one of the major trends that will fuel the industry’s growth in the next four years. Factors such as reduced costs and improvements in efficiencies have prompted buyers and sellers to switch from letters of credits to open accounts. To meet this demand, banks have been compelled to improve their efficiency and reduce their reduce operational costs. Additionally, the adoption of bank payment obligations will also help to spur market growth as it provides a level of security that is not possible with pure open account transactions.
